âBrady doesnât warm up to new people easily, so Amy had quite a challenge from the start. She was incredibly patient, and kept us updated with frequent pictures, which gave us peace of mind. She took Brady on several walks to help calm his nerves. I felt comfortable knowing Brady was in her care, and Iâve already booked Amy again in November. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and experienced pet sitter.â
About: I have owned dogs, cats, turtles, and various rodents throughout my entire life and I have always cherished animals. I have received my veterinary assistant certification from Craven Community College and I have over 2 years of pet sitting experience. I understand that pets are not just animals. They are our family and deserve to be treated as such. I am very experienced with pet care. I have cared for pets throughout my entire life and I find it therapeutic to care for and love all animals. I work about 3 days a week so my schedule is very open. I am a full time student but I only have 2 classes a day and I have lots of free time. Most people say I spoil my dog. I have always felt connected to animal and I fully believe that they are âpeopleâ just like us. For me, a pet is like a child. They require just as much love. I would never put an animals in harms way. I hold them to the same standard as humans.
About: Iâve grown up with dogs almost my entire life, so caring for animals has always been a big part of who I am! For the past 5 years, Iâve been pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family, giving me experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need extra attention and playtime to sweet senior dogs who need a little more patience and care, I love them all! I also have a big dog back home named Hank, so large breeds definitely donât intimidate me! Whether your pet is big or small, young or old, Iâm happy to give them all the love and attention they deserve. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while youâre away. Iâll treat your furry family members just like theyâre my own! I am a full time student but my class schedule is flexible and gives me plenty of time for visits and time to take care of your pups multiple times throughout the day. One of my biggest priorities when caring for your pets is making sure they feel as comfortable, relaxed, and loved as possible! I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always do my best to match the energy and environment theyâre used to at home. Whether that means lots of playtime, long walks, extra cuddles, or simply having someone there to keep them company, Iâm happy to do whatever makes them feel most at ease! I understand that being away from their owners can sometimes be stressful for pets, so I want to be a familiar, comforting presence they can count on. My goal is to keep their routines as normal as possible and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for every step of the way.

âMy 6 month old, active puppy & I love Jane! She was always on time, great communication, very respectful and an awesome person. I will be having her stay with my puppy any time I need to travel. Knowing my baby was in good hands allowed me to really relax & enjoy my vacation. Thank you, Jane!!!â
ââââââ Exceptional Care from Allison & Alex! Allison and Alex took wonderful care of our boys over the Labor Day weekend, and we couldnât have been happier with their service! Their communication was spot-on from beginning to end, and the photos of belly rubs, playtime, and happy boys gave us such peace of mind while we were away. đžâ¤ď¸ They did an amazing job managing our senior boyâs medications and kept us informed about any concerns or adjustments that needed to be made. We truly appreciated their attentiveness and the way they treated our boys as if they were their own. They also took great care of our home and made sure the yard was cleaned up after the boys. It was clear that they went above and beyond in every aspect of their stay. We highly recommend Allison and Alex to anyone looking for trustworthy, caring, responsible, and communicative pet sitters. We would absolutely book them again! đśđžâ¤ď¸â

âI canât recommend Haley enough! She did an outstanding job caring for my furry friendsâRaven, Nanachi, Koda, Kiwi, Zora, and Terra. She has a genuine love for animals, as they seemed so happy and comfortable in her presence. Each one of them adored her, and I could see that they had a fantastic time together. Haley was incredibly attentive, ensuring everyone met their needs and engaging with them through playtime and cuddles. I received regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Itâs such a relief knowing that my pets were well cared for and loved while I was gone! Thank you, Haley, for your wonderful care and for making this experience so enjoyable for Raven, Nanachi, Koda, Kiwi, Zora, and Terra. Iâll be booking your services again in the future!â

About: I have 20 years of pet-sitting and ownership, and would love to help care for your family animals. I enjoy all kinds of pets and have experiences with a variety of personalities! Iâm a freelance watercolor and sculpture artist so much of my work is flexible. I schedule specific projects throughout the month which would work well with pet care. In my home I currently have a spoiled and friendly miniature dachshund, and would love to welcome dogs into our home that would coexist and enrich his life as well. The yard is not currently fenced, so potty breaks would be leashed in my home. In my clients space, I would respect all desired rules and procedures. I truly enjoy clarity and any direction given.

About: Hello! My name is Neffy and I am 27 years old. Iâve been a vet tech/receptionist since 2021 and previously have experience working with animals in the humane society in Greenville. I love connecting with and providing the best service to not only you but your fur babies as well! I have loved animals of every sort my whole life and would love to meet and care for your baby as much as I care for mine! I would love it if you gave me the opportunity to care for your pet to brighten their day as well as yours! I am currently very flexible and have more time to provide enrichment and safe outdoor activities. This means I can be available during the day when your baby needs me most! I like to make sure the fur babies are comfortable wherever they may be. I am quick to locate any hazards that could cause injury and am mindful of what may upset or give them a scare.
About: Hi there! Iâm Z, and Iâm a lifelong animal lover with a deep understanding of both cats and dogs. Iâve grown up with dogs and have a wonderful cat of my own. I also have years of experience caring for the pets of both my family and friends. Whether itâs playtime, cuddles, or ensuring your pet sticks to their routine, I treat every furry friend like theyâre part of my own family. As someone who works part-time during the day, I have the flexibility to provide pet care in the mornings, evenings, and weekends. My schedule allows me to plan drop-in visits, walks, or playtime around your petâs needs. Caring for animals is a natural part of my routine since I already care for my own cat. Whether itâs an early-morning visit before work or evening cuddles, Iâm happy to adapt to ensure your pet feels loved and well cared for. When caring for pets in a clientâs home, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and happy in their familiar surroundings. I stick to their established routines, whether itâs feeding schedules, playtime, or walks, to keep things consistent and comforting for them. For dogs, that might mean exciting walks or outdoor play, while cats might prefer quiet companionship or engaging with their favorite toys. I make sure their environment stays clean and safe, and Iâm happy to administer medications or meet any special needs. Along with meeting their physical needs, I give plenty of cuddles and attention to help them feel secure and loved. I treat every pet like part of my own family, ensuring theyâre well cared for until their owner returns.
About: Iâve grown up with dogs and animals my entire life, raised puppies and nursed elderly dogs! Definitely a passion of mine. Iâve trained a few rescues as well. I work part time so Iâm home quite often, other than that I spend my free time hiking or taking walks with my own pup Willow. Open spaced home, great walking neighborhood with dog park only .10 mile away. Willow Iâve raised since a puppy, sheâs a 6 year old lab who is insanely affectionate and energetic, and beyond sweet. She does get overly excited meeting new dogs, and loves making new friends! Itâs different for each sitting and depends on what each owner is looking for. I will not take on opportunities that I canât be fully invested and present for. Plenty of free time to accommodate your pups needs! Communication with other owners is vital from both ends to be sure everyone is taken care of and happy.
About: I have had my doggy since I was 17! She has been with me through a lot! I love animals and enjoy meeting new ones and bonding with them! Sometimes I have a really flexible schedule and can work with whatever your schedule needs may be. My schedule can change from week to week. So itâs best to reach out. I typically am free most days during the day. Late nights can be arranged. Child free home. I have 1 dog and 1 cat. The cat will be separate from other animals. She likes to stay in her space.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 263 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Fountain. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitterâs presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Fountain walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your homeâs security or appliances.
Itâs helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Fountain maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate theyâll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your petâs profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Fountain choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justiceâs National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitterâs cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, youâll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
